Quantitative Assessments

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-022924

The uncertainty in some sources-such as some model parameters and some input data-can be estimated through quantitative assessments involving statistical uncertainty and sensitivity analyses. In addition, comparisons can be made for the special purpose of quantitatively describing the differences to be expected between model estimates of current conditions and comparable field observations.
